This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Her first migraine living with him
was like love affairs ending in prescriptions
I know you're not happy and I'm taking advantage
of the fact you're jealous
I wish I'd thrown the apple back
She says you've changed completed by a severe low of nerves
She says you arrange things but you've given it all away
Don't try to explain
Don't give it a name
This mess that you're into
You try to avoid
You try to forget
this mess that you're into
At least you've found something useful you can do
You're good in bed but you haven't cracked the rest yet
if I could do it all again then I'd do it over you
and me we sweat and cry she says
She says you've changed completed by a severe loss of nerve
She says you arrange things but you've given it all away
Don't try to explain
Don't give it a name
this mess that you're into
You try to avoid
You try to forget
this mess that you're into
was like love affairs ending in prescriptions
I know you're not happy and I'm taking advantage
of the fact you're jealous
I wish I'd thrown the apple back
She says you've changed completed by a severe low of nerves
She says you arrange things but you've given it all away
Don't try to explain
Don't give it a name
This mess that you're into
You try to avoid
You try to forget
this mess that you're into
At least you've found something useful you can do
You're good in bed but you haven't cracked the rest yet
if I could do it all again then I'd do it over you
and me we sweat and cry she says
She says you've changed completed by a severe loss of nerve
She says you arrange things but you've given it all away
Don't try to explain
Don't give it a name
this mess that you're into
You try to avoid
You try to forget
this mess that you're into
